  • 23. About this report This report was compiled using Scout Labs. The account was provided to me for research purposes. The NFL and Social Media are two things that I am passionate about. I did the research for this report to see if this online passion and buzz had any relation to on-field performance. I figured using numbers was a better predicting tool than saying I like this team or mascot X is tougher than mascot Z. All team names and league marks appearing in this document are trademarks or registered trademarks of the National Football League or individual teams. 18
